When dung beetles roll their tiny balls of poop across the sands of South Africa on a moonless night, they look to the glow of our Milky Way galaxy as a navigational aid, researchers report.

"Even on clear, moonless nights, many dung beetles still manage to orientate along straight paths," Marie Dacke, a biologist at Sweden's Lund University, said in a news release. "This led us to suspect that the beetles exploit the starry sky for orientation  a feat that had, to our knowledge, never before been demonstrated in an insect."

Fascism & communism both relied on the theory of evolution - where else could they foster the belief of a superior race? Together they were responsible for over 100 million deaths in the 20th century. Is this your bloodthirsty boogie man fantasy?

Genesis 1:14-15 (NIV): "And God said, 'Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky...and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years..."

God cleared the atmosphere from translucent to (often) transparent so He could create animals, and later humans, that needed visual access to the specific locations of the sun, moon, and stars to regulate their behavior. The dung beetle is but another of innumerable examples.
